Shoplifting glasses nationwide problem
Gainesville Police want you to keep an eye out for two women seen in
surveillance video swiping thousands of dollars' worth of eyeglass frames. One
woman is seen in the video putting several pairs of glasses up her shirt before
walking out of a store at Lakeshore Mall. Back in April, Gainesville had a
similar theft. In that case, a man and woman were seen stealing eyeglasses.
Other local jurisdictions have had their share of people shoplifting eyeglasses.
Police said it's happening nationwide all because of the latest fad. It's
stylish these days to wear glasses, even if you have perfect vision. "It's the
new fad and what we see, with school starting back, people are going out and
looking for these items," said Sgt. Kevin Holbrook with Gainesville Police.
